This shows recent movements of last year's eagle chick. Click on the pic to enlarge.
I understand the bird had been caught in a crow trap- and released unharmed.

FOREST SCOPING




Busy now working on the Glen Tanar Forest Scoping exercise. The subject of this is the plan for the forest for the next 20 years.
First we prepare maps and pix to give people an idea of the sort of things we might be doing: planting, thinning, felling, etc. Then we take this out to consultation: locally, in the Victory Hall Aboyne on 21st March, thereafter in the Braeloine Visitor Centre for a week or so. We will also be meeting with agencies and major stakeholders. Once we get responses back, we will produce our scoping report- probably ready early June. If you want to know more, why not contact us?
